What do you want to do for a living?

Yesterday we found such an interesting job offer, that we felt compelled to explain it to you, in case you were interested.

It consists in being paid 60$ every month, just for sending 1,000 emails a day. The deal works more or less like this. Once you agree, you receive a program that enables you to start sending emails from your computer. Though you must run it every day, it only takes 5 minutes of your time to send all those 1,000 emails. It doesn’t look as a hard job, does it?

It seems the employer’s SMTP server imposes him a limit to the amount of emails he can send daily, so he needs more people to increase his ability to send more.

Be it a legitimate job offer or not (most probably), the comments in the “Questions & Answers” section leave little to imagination:

“As I understand it, you’ve got an application that only lets you send one thousand emails daily, don’t you? Well, we have developed an application to send emails, and you won’t have limits in the daily amount, it is developed in c# .Net we can adjust to your uses and sell it to you, the application only needs a SMTP server (outgoing mail server) to be specified, and a user and a password, and done, you will be able to send all the emails you want daily, you wouldn’t need to pay 60$ monthly, what do you think?”

Mmm… So it seems spamming is a healthy industry. We should not forget that it works because people continues to buy the goods advertised on those junk emails. The spam problem will cease when revenue to spammers disappears.
